Design a level
Design Studio Place the one decisive tile into a half-built level to hit a design goal — bridge a jump, signpost a hazard, set a safe start. Playtest Lab Spot the design flaw in a broken level, then pick the fix — learn to watch what a player would DO, not what the level says. Build your own A blank cabinet and six tiles. Build a level, run it, and see which jumps she can make. Keep it as a code or print it.
Learn & practice
Mixed practice A short round that shuffles the kits you have played, resurfaced when they are ready to review. LevelForge Sprint Race your OWN best on what you already know. Timer optional, no penalty for a miss. Trick Questions Brain-teasers with a twist — spot why the obvious design choice is a trap. Progress Your levels, days active, and how each skill area is coming along — saved on this device.
